The most prolific COA's are mostly on fakes. I am among a very small handful of dealers who are committed to selling only genuine relics. For that reason we refuse to sell artifacts with COA's from many of these authenticators.The only people who's opinions I trust enough to recognize their COA's are the following: Ben Stermer, Dwain Rogers, Greg Perino, Jim Bennett, Tony Putty, and Ken Partain. Right now eBay is full of fake artifacts. I see thousands of dollars spent every week on eBay, by customers who are taken in by these criminals, while genuine artifacts go for next to nothing because they do not look as good as the fakes. I cannot emphasize enough that you should research before you invest. A little common sense may save you a small fortune; for example, does the seller seem to have an endless supply of such attractive artifacts that even the Museums do not display in quantity? For example, offering 2 or 3 Clovis, Cumberland, or Folsom points every week. SO, ask questions, and best to get a COA from one of the Authenticators mentioned above.
